Summary of the contracting process

Sheffield Children’s NHS Foundation Trust procured maintenance and cleanroom re-qualification services for its aseptic facility in Sheffield. The requirement covers the facility’s Envair isolators and horizontal laminar airflow (LAF) units, with the work focused on maintaining and re-qualifying equipment used in an aseptic healthcare setting. In plain terms, this is specialist technical maintenance and validation of controlled cleanroom and medical equipment environments, rather than general building cleaning or routine facilities management. The procurement is for services under the medical and surgical equipment repair and maintenance category (CPV 50420000). It was arranged as one requirement for the Trust’s Sheffield operations.

The procurement is complete and has been awarded following a below-threshold limited competition. One lot was involved. Bassaire Cleanrooms Ltd was awarded the contract on 4 August 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The contract value is £24,060 gross, in GBP. The contract period runs from 8 August 2026 to 7 August 2028. The contract is active. The published outcome identifies maintenance and re-qualification of the aseptic facility, Envair isolators and horizontal LAFs as the awarded service. The available outcome information does not set out separate award scores or a stated weighting between price, quality or other evaluation factors.

This requirement is relevant to established cleanroom and controlled-environment service providers with practical expertise in aseptic-facility maintenance, cleanroom re-qualification, isolator testing and horizontal LAF performance work. A credible competitor would need to understand the operational and compliance demands of equipment supporting healthcare aseptic processes, and be able to deliver planned technical maintenance and validation across these systems. The awarded supplier is a large specialist business, indicating that the requirement can suit providers with sufficient technical depth, experienced personnel and operational capacity to support an NHS children’s hospital environment. Firms building a competing capability should focus on demonstrable experience with Envair isolators, LAF units and medical or surgical equipment maintenance for comparable healthcare facilities.
